When voters cast ballots tomorrow the residents of Moore Park’s subdivision one (previous post) will have an extra hurdle or three to leap. Their polling station is actually outside the subdivision, seemingly the only such example of this oddity around South Bayview. In other elections, voters could access a polling station near at hand, and with lots of parking. The photo above shows well-known voting station venues. Left to right Our Lady of Perpetual Help School on Garfield Ave., OLPH church on Clifton Road and Whitney Junior Public School on Rosedale Heights Dr. For reasons unknown, only voters in subdivision two will vote at OLPH school but not those in subdivision one. They will instead trek to the inaccessible realm of The Deer Park Public Library at St. Clair Ave. East and Alvin Ave. This is the land of parking enforcement officers, delivery trucks, U-turning taxis, no street parking and streetcars. Thanks for nothing.
